Swift RetributfOn Visited Upon the MUIR
derers of Rev. T. p. Ryan in West Vir-
ginia.
CHARLESTON, W. Va, Oct. 19.-The
Kanawha regulators have been having a
regular harvest. Five of the gang who
killed Rev. T. P. Ryan last Thursday and
then robbed his house, have been worked
off by the vigilantes. One was shot in a
fight with the regulators on Friday; one
was hung without legal process the same
day; a third was shot half an hour later !;
a fourth was started to the Roam County
Jail under an escort of vigilantes who
may have tired of their charge, and the
fifth was lynched last night.
The crime which caused this carnival of
blood and vengeance was committed last
Thursday night, and without doubt is one
Of the most cruel and unprovoked ever
committed in the State.
A number of masked men visited the
home of Rev. T. P. Ryan, an aged minis
ter, and demanded his money. He warned
them off, telling them that he was armed
and might defend himself.
Thereupon one Of the robbers shot the
old man, and compelled the family to re.
move him to an upstairs room, where, in
great agony, he prayed for the forgive
ness of his murderers, and after hours Of
great suffering, died. By this time his
murderers, who had secured but q small
sum of money, were far away.
The news of the murder spread rapidly,
and by noon the next day hundreds Of the
best citizens of three counties were in the
saddle, heavily armed and securing the
country in search of the murderers with
the results as stated.

Cunard, to recover $3,00O,000 alleged to
have been wrongfully converted to his
own use by Francklin. Cunard is Franck-

Cunard invested heavily. The mystery
attending the finances of the company has
nearly ruined the stock. Meanwhile.
Francklin's credit has been lost, and al
